INGREDIENTS
3 oz Grilled Chicken Breast (cooked)
1/2 cup Roasted Chickpeas
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Baby Spinach
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
1/2 cup Diced Cucumber
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the chickpeas. Rinse and drain canned chickpeas if using, then pat dry with paper towels. Toss the chickpeas with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a small drizzle of olive oil, and roast on a baking sheet for about 20-25 minutes until they turn crisp.
While the chickpeas are roasting, cook the quinoa according to package directions and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken over medium heat until nicely charred and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Once cooled, slice the chicken into bite-sized strips.
In a large bowl, combine the baby spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced cucumber. Add the cooked quinoa and roasted chickpeas.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, and chopped parsley. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Drizzle the lemon-herb dressing over the salad, then top with sliced grilled chicken. Toss everything gently to combine and serve immediately.
